Default APS products...

Does anyone know anything about APS products, namely intercoolers, such as the top mount... Also, at what point would you need 3.5 inch exhaust such as what they offer as a "race" exhaust.... It seems like people are doing fine on 3 inch... Just wondering, seeing as i havent seen or read much about them..

Thanks...
Mark

3.5" is overkill unless you are running serious HP. The TMIC are nice just as big if not a little bigger than MRT's.

We will have a few APS TMIC in stock later this week.

would it be better to go with 3 inch lets say, if around 300 whp was your goal.... is that the idea im getting? Obviously the 2.5 will bottle neck somewhere...

from my readings APS makes MRT's front mount, not sure if they make they top mount for them or not, the only thing I can see a 3.5 exhaust being helpfull in is top speed style racing where top end power badn is more important than down low, since you will loose ALOT of power down low, and you will need to be running an EXTREMELY big turbo like say a GT 3037-s

Scooby Sport! ... Thats the exaust system I'm putting on the car!

Scooby Sports stuff aint pretty, but it's function over form, plus thay warranty the parts for 25 years.

Actually PWR makes MRT's intercoolers to MRT's specs. APS only makes there own.

Ryan, 3.5in would probaby benefit you once you car is done and tuned. Especially with that Garrett turbo.
